Investors would be eyeing any decision on extension of minimum import price of steel products,
which is set to expire on Aug 5. The government had on Feb 5 imposed minimum import price on 173 steel item lines for six months, to protect the companies from cheap imports coming into the country from China, South Korea, and Japan. The decision is crucial for domestic steelmakers as they were facing predatory pricing from global exporters.

Steel Minister Chaudhary Birender Singh on Thursday asked the industry to prepare a "roadmap" to
become competitive in the international market even if the minimum import price on steel products is
extended after its expiry in August.
